Dresden, eine Bach-Stadt? Nein - mit Blick auf die Person Johann Sebastian Bachs, der sich vergeblich um ein Engagement am Hofe bewarb. Ja - als geistige Heimat zahlreicher Künstler von internationalem Rang, in deren Schaffen Bach ein permanenter Bezugspunkt ist.Diese Erfahrungen mit Bach bilden den Ausgangspunkt der Beiträge von Musikern und Wissenschaftlern, die in Dresden arbeiten, von der lokalen Tradition geprägt sind, sie reflektieren und weitergeben. Fast beiläufig entsteht ein reiches Spektrum von neuen und unkonventionellen Zugängen zu Bach: ein reiches Kapitel der Rezeption seiner Werke und ein Stück Musikgeschichte der sächsischen Hauptstadt.

There can be no doubt about it: The Bachs were a family of musicians. One of them was Johann Bach, who lived from 1604 to 1673 and experienced the turbulent times of the Thirty Years' War. When he - as the first in the family - found joy and fulfillment not only as an organist, but also as a composer, he would certainly never have imagined what historically great steps his successors were to take, especially his great nephew Johann Sebastian.Johann Bach's motet Unser Leben ist ein Schatten was published in 1821, but was erroneously attributed to Johann Michael Bach. Unusual is the scoring with one six-part main chorus and one three-part off-stage chorus (Chorus latens) which gives the piece a spatial sound depth and thus a very particular atmosphere.

The cantor of Gehren Johann Michael Bach the elder, the younger brother of Johann Christoph, is described in the family chronicle as a skilful composer. According to a contemporary document he was quiet and reserved in character, with deep artistic understanding, and these qualities are reflected in his compositions. Those which survive consist of some dozen motets, solo strophic arias with instrumental accompaniment, and a few cantatas and organ chorales.
